Clear Mg high-fidelity open-back headphones incorporate the new technology of a speaker driver with an ‘M’-shaped Magnesium dome. Magnesium is light and boasts a significant damping factor, offering great dynamics and detail across the full sound spectrum while preserving a neutral and balanced signature. In addition to their sound quality, Clear Mg headphones stand out for their chic and elegant design. Their Chestnut and Mixed Metals finish, as well as the fine materials used (leather, aluminium, microfiber), make it a truly design led accessory.

    • another excellent headphone from Focal
I have the (closed-back) Focal Elegia's which are excellent. Wanted to add an open-backed option for private home listening so plumped for these. As with the Elegia's, yes they have low enough impedance to be driven straight from a cell phone or laptop, but UNLESS you have an external DAC/headphone amp to drive these, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. Quite why you'd drop 4-figures on a high end set of audiophile cans and then plug them straight into a laptop or phone thinking you'll get great results is beyond me anyway. The DACs in phones and laptop are cheap and crappy and that's what they make these headphones if that's all you have to drive them. A headphone amp though (Chord's excellent MOJO for example) really takes these up thru the gears and boy are they incredible! They look amazing, but the design is actually acoustically functional, not just aethetically pleasing. Amazing build quality: leather and brushed aluminium. Everything you'd expect from a FOCAL product. They are even more comfortable than the Elegia's which I didn't think possible and the sound stage (as expected with open back) is impressive. Much clearer, with tight, clear, punchy bass. The mids and trebles, as noted in other reviews, really are something else. Definitely a worthy purchase at this price point, but again, a waste of money without a DAC/amp to drive them. ... show more

    • A highly resolving, dynamic and wonderful headphone
These headphones provide a realistic three dimensional space with air around the notes and instruments. They occasionaly fool me when the music begins by making me believe that I have left the speakers on in the room. The top end was a bit bright at times, causing me to swap out my pure silver after-market cables, in favor of pure copper. That turned them from fatiguing to fun, while retaining all of the clarity I wanted. These phones also benefit from a warmer sounding headamp. When I switched to a tubed headamp/DAC from RME and the THX 789 AAA, these headphones became even more like being there and hence more fun to listen to. The build quality and finish are excellent and they are very comforable over extended listening. Hence, after close to a year, and paired with the right equipment, they are my favorite openbacks. They are benchmark clear. Enthusiastically recommended. ... show more

    • Excellent sound
These are the best performing open back headphones that I own. I started with Sennheiser HD580’s 20+ years ago. Then I acquired the Drop/Sennheiser HD6xx, which were slight improvement. The Drop/Focal Elex were next, and for the price-performance are highly recommended. The Clear MG’s however are even better, although twice the price. They are very accurate, making source material very critical to get the best playback enjoyment. Bottom line: if you could have only one pair of headphones, and can live with drawbacks of sound leakage, these are highly recommended. Expensive, but you get what you pay for in sound quality and materials used in construction. They work well with output from digital players, but shine when driven by the Schitt Vali 2 amp (highly recommended). ... show more

    • Very nice but doesn't justify its price for me
I acknowledge that sound quality is very subjective, so your experience may differ. But for me, the sound quality is not 5x better than my Hifiman Sundara, so I'm struggling to justify paying 5x more for them. They definitely have more bass than the Sundara, but at the same time the beats are not as tight. Everything else as far as imaging and detail is comparable between the two, in my humble opinion. I would give them 3 stars for the price, but the carrying case is so luxurious and they look so beautiful that I'm adding a star. It feels to me like you're paying for the aesthetics here, because the sound is maybe 1.25x better than the Sundara, but they look and feel far more luxurious. But yeah, I care more about how they sound so these are going back. I'm gonna try a Hifiman Arya next and I'll update this review of those blow my mind. For now, I recommend you give Sundara a try. ... show more

First off I got to say that there is a break-in period the headphones “rattled “ for a period, just put on really loud music for 2 days and let them play ,(cover with blanket) after that…WOW ,WONDERFUL! I made a great choice , money well spent! Buy a good amp and you will never look back at your purchase ! I found out about "LOSSLESS" Sound setting on my computer , perfect clear sound , the amp I use has a balanced connection, what can I say this mid-priced Focal was a great choice. why spend more when these play music I just love to hear!!! I have now owned these for a couple months now, and don't let people tell you there is no base when the "break-in " period is done, they handle Metallica with ease. I have become addicted to acoustic, everything sounds Wonderfull UPDATE; I have now owned these headphones for 11 months and I believe they are fully "broken in" I have to say since I made some changes I am just thrilled with the sound.I first had them hooked up to the iFi Neo iDSD then I saw a add for McIntosh headphone amp. I KNOW ,I KNOW, why would someone buy a $1,500 headphone a get a $2,500 amp?....Simple, I just purchased an amp for my surround sound system and it really opened up the speakers. So being a big fan of McIntosh and knowing they stand for uncompromising quality I decided to get a DEDICATED headphone amp , ..no Dac, no frills, ... and WOW the sound is clear & clean, the focal clear MG,s perform at a next level. If you bump the impedance up on this amp to 100 ohm these baby's are pure enjoyment and don't forget to EQ to you liking.If you put HI-RES lossless source and good clean power to this headphone the desire to purchase a more expensive ( for now) will be tamed I,m going to add one last thing, I noticed that these headphones and your amp will take 5-10 mins to "warm up" some of the mids are fussy but after that amount of time the drivers settle and you are rewarded with some Wonderfull music. Keep in mind that you will have streaming issues from time to time that WILL EFFECT the sound, or there will be electrical issues that will from time to time make the headphones not perform at their best on that day.I listen about 1-2hrs every other day watching soccer with the sound off on the T.V. when everything is is clicking this system will make me just sit there in total bliss.... enjoy!!! ... show more
